another angle that we need s to be pointed out in defense of our dear brother, fadelatushaykh al Imam Muhammad Naasiru-Deen al-Albanee is that there are those, fm the people of opposition to the sunnah and its people who say that he is self taught.
They merely affirm him as one who just memorized 100 thousand ahadeeth, and they mistakenly view that a muhadith is just one who just does this act.
No by a longshot, rather a muhadith is one who knows along with this, the isnaad of these narations, the azbaabul-nuzool, nasikh wa mansookh, takhsees and its attributes, usoolu-fiqh, and the likes of the sciences and even tafseer. So the muhadith one who entails all of these knoweldges by whcih al-hamdulillah, he had fulfilled.
